Yes, you will still go through menopause...If you have them taken out you go through Surgical Menopause...This happens immediately...This is interesting as I had my Uterus and Ovaries taken out at the same time and nothing ever phased me....I just kept on doing whatever it was that I was doing...

Now about the orgasms....Believe me it has nothing to do with your sex life....I believe that a woman can mess around with her mind and think this....From day one as soon as I recovered, we were all that we ever were and then some....And may I add, it keeps getting better......Don't worry....It is the neatest time of your life...

I have to disagree with Caroline. Having one healthy, normal ovary will not cause you to experience menopause. Just as one testicle produces sufficient sex hormones for a man to father children and achieve an orgasm, one ovary should be able to provide enough sex hormones for you to become pregnant and have a healthy, satisfying sex life.

Hi and I am sorry that I did not make this plain....The title of this Thread was "If I leave one ovary will I still go through Menopause?"....She did not say "at once", but will I go through it....This was the question that I answered....I did not say that this was immediate, but that this would happen....

I'm not one to argue semantics but I guess this is a matter of interpretation. I assumed she was asking if that would cause her to go into menopause immediately. Either way, both of us have valid information that she needs to know.

Im 18 yrs old, and I had one ovary removed at the age of 14. I did not experience any sort of menopause, and there was never a sexual difference. Its exactly the same as when i had two.... The only thing that changed was my periods. they went from normal to much more painful, so I now just take birth control to control them. But seriously only having one ovary doesn't change anything....
